Teacher Planning – Project description
The design of the teaching methodology combines and integrates
•teaching objectives
•learning objectives
•creation of an appealing and pleasant learning environment
•linkage of theoretical framework with an empirical case study
This learning project aims to develop an integrated learning
framework for the computer science topic input and output
devices
The subject of research is whether blended learning surpasses
conventional learning
The use of technology is not an end in itself but the vehicle for
integrated teaching

Teacher Planning – Project description
Microsoft Share Point Server 2007 is an ideal content
management system. This tool is used in this project as a course
management system (CMS) to facilitate:
•Direct access to learning resources
•Interactive learning
•Collaboration between students and teacher
•Direct exchange of data and information
•Evaluation and assessment through internet/intranet
•Replacement of lost class hours due to illness, celebrations etc

Teacher Management – Teaching
•During the first stage (stage 1) the students coped with input
output methods and devices in the classroom. They also did
some reading at home.
•The power point was used for the lecture while students used
internet explorer to gather additional information from various
internet sites.

During the next stage (2),
1. Students searched the WWW for additional
information and then added their links to the CMS
2. Students solved their exercises and then saved them
as word files in the CMS
3. Students used the team discussion of the CMS to
solve their wonders and discuss about the lesson
4. Teacher evaluated the original and the final document
of each student and published the right answers

During the third stage students
•Discussed their questions and answers with the teacher
•Took a writing test

The fourth stage is completely based on the CMS.
1. Students developed their tests with multiple choice, multiple
response matching, fill in the blank, etc questions. Each
student knew only the questions of his own word document.
2. Teacher chose questions from all tests and created with the
Articulate Quizmaker software an on line test. Students had to
take the test within a certain time period.
3. The software automatically marked the tests and the results
plus the right answers were disseminated through the CMS.

During the last stage (5) the HexCrawler Robot Kit and selected
sensors were used in order to explore input output devices.
•
The HexCrawler Robot Kit is equipped with the Board
of Education programming board suitable for training,
education and research activities.
•
This part of the project is developed in parallel with
the activities of the artificial intelligence and robotics
club of Psychico College.
•
Students assemble, program and analyze the
infraction of the robot with its environment.
•
The activities of the artificial intelligence and robotics
club are exhibited to the college fair.

Assessment & standards
General evaluation
•The students response was amazing. Students asked to adopt this
methodology to all Computer Science modules.
•The overall design of this activity favors all students, helps absent
students and students with dyslexia or dysgrafia feel better and present a
better performance.
•According to recent publications, outcomes of international conferences
and educational events (BETT 2007, 2008) the education seems to
adopt such methodologies and activities.
